About Our Club

The Vic Clark Chapter 91 of the Quarter Century Wireless Association serves the Washington, D. C. area. Our chapter usually meets once per month on the third Saturday at 11:30 a.m.  Usually we meet at Glory Days Grill in Fairfax, Virginia, but check the club calendar for changes.  We may have a speaker, take a field trip, have a picnic, or just have a social gathering.  Visitors are welcome.

Our Club is named after Vic Clark, W4KFC, who held several offices in the ARRL, including that of President.  He was an avid contester and helped found the Potomac Valley Radio Club.  You can read more about Vic at this link: https://qcwa.org/w4kfc-03537-sk.htm
